A Word from Our Lead Designer

A Word from Our Lead Designer

"It is a singular venue. Working with Esquire and their team of assembled designers was inspirational. Although there are few signs left of the complexity of the project, it's important to consider how much work and thought has gone into this home. There were no rookies on this project — only experts. Many individuals came together to share the vision and create a beautiful environment for the Ultimate Bachelor. Welcome!" —Elaine Culotti of Porta Bella

Great Room

The social heart of the house, and with reason. Guests can relax on a custom sectional couch made from Hugo Boss textiles, while a unique fire-and-water fountain runs nearby. And then there's the bar, a rounded alcove with a view to three 32-inch LG flat screens. An eight-foot-long Basquiat painting rounds out the reasons why calling this part of our place "pretty good" just won't cut it.

Study

Crafted by Mark Cutler, the Esquire Bachelor's study is precise, accented by elegant details for Corum watches and remarkably convenient for everyone. This part of our place is perfect for checking the stock market, and perfect for sealing a deal over Scotch. Makes work feel like a luxury.

Virtual Reality Lounge

Powered by Lufthansa-approved technology you can't even see, this room is literally a wall-to-wall flight simulator. Air multipliers convincingly blow wind through your hair as you hold your arms out and tilt like a human jet soaring over exotic locales on the projection screen.

Master Bedroom Suite

Inspired by Salvatore Ferragamo down to its wall coverings, the master is grounded in generations of handcrafted design, but cutting-edge all the same — dangling spindled beads replace the traditional four-posts around the bed, and a high-definition screen is built into the stone fireplace. Yes.

Master Suite Closet

This closet isn't just stocked like a Ferragamo boutique, it looks like one. Redefines "walk-in."

Media Room

How do six Internet-ready, high-def LG screens sound? How about adding a seventh that's 55 inches across with a 3-D display? And a 16-foot, rotating turntable in the center of the room with eight captain's chairs around it? Cupholders? The media room, designed by Amy Matthews for the DIY Network, has got it all. Cool? Cool.
